Did you link your "oracle/lib/ libobk.so" file to the file installed by 
the oracle agent (The path may be different on Windows for Oracle)
I am not sure how that works on Windows?

[Veritas-bu] Oracle Rman - is it necessary to stop and start the oracle 
services






I have configured an oracle rman backup on a Windows 2003 64bit cluster. I 
am using netbackup 5.1 mp6 client and a windows 2003 netbackup 51 
server.The oracle agent licenses are installed. The attempt to run the 
backup by specifying the script successfully connects to the database and 
rman catalog server but fails with the following error. 
 
RMAN-03009: failure of allocate command on SBT_TAPE1 channel at 12/13/2006 
17:15:37
ORA-19554: error allocating device, device type: SBT_TAPE, device name: 
ORA-27211: Failed to load Media Management Library
 
I have not stopped the oracle services and re-started them as instructed 
in the installation guide as i cannot do this easlily as the server is 24 
hours. Is sthis step necessary to get the backup to work? What will 
stopping oracle accomplish for a netbackup client agent point of view?
 
Also, when i open Backup, Archive and Restore on the client I cannot see 
the oracle database.
 
THanks for help.
